Welcome to Level 3 Graphic Design at Runshaw College. This two year course aims to provide students with the opportunity to gain a nationally recognised qualification and equips them with the skills, knowledge and understanding necessary to progress into further or higher education, or training and apprenticeships in the creative sector. It is a stimulating and demanding course designed for those who have an interest in Graphic arts, giving them the opportunity to explore and develop their creativity.
Students will explore a wide range of digital and manual materials, techniques and processes, including Graphics software such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, drawing, printmaking and photography. Practical projects will include areas such as Typography, Illustration, Digital and Traditional Photography and Advertising. Furthermore, students will also produce practical work in a range of specialist areas such as Digital Art, Editing Photographic imagery and advertising.
A single assessment of Unit 1 is set by UAL Awarding Body and externally assessed and graded at the end of the year. In year two, students become more specialist and create a more in-depth portfolio to support the choices they make regarding future progression. It is intended that through bespoke areas of study, our students develop their own style and artistic personality. Students produce a portfolio of evidence for Unit 2 that is internally assessed and externally moderated at the end of year two.
As well as developing students’ professional practice in the visual arts, the Extended Diploma also advances a range of transferable skills that may benefit them in other subject areas. By the end of the course, our students demonstrate initiative, team working, problem solving, literacy, numeracy and presentation skills, amongst others.
To enhance studies at college and to inform ideas, students have the opportunity to undertake primary research at inspirational locations and visit museum and art gallery collections.
Our students are extremely successful with their progressions from the course including high profile courses at universities such as Winchester School of Art, The University of Salford, Huddersfield University and Manchester Metropolitan University. To further enhance studies at the college, our students must source and participate in an external work placement in a relevant industry.
Do you want a career in graphics, illustration, advertising or art direction? If you want to learn more about the role of a Graphic Designer, whilst developing relevant skills and a knowledge of the industry and working to briefs, then this is the course for you!
